And as such they are traversing with their feet on the assembly house of the name Sudharma which is just deserving for the best demigods and was forcibly taken away from them (demigods). #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="PURPORT"#PURPORT#/span##/h4# #div class="purport"# Those who are directly servitors of the Lord are not only protected by the Lord from all respects of fearfulness but also can enjoy the best of the things even they are forcibly accumulated. The Lord is equal in behaviour with all living beings but He is partial with His pure devotees being too much affectionate upon them. The city of Dwarka was flourishing being enriched with the best of things in the material world. The state assembly house of parliament is constructed according to the dignity of the particular state. In the heavenly planet the state assembly house called by the Sudharma was just deserving the dignity of the best of the demigods. Such assembly house of parliament is never meant for any state on the globe because the human being on the earth is unable to construct such parliament house however a particular state may be materially advanced. But during the time of Lord Krishna's presence on the earth the members of the Yadu family forcibly brought down the celestial assembly house on earth and fixed it up at Dwarka. They were able to use such force because they were certain of the indulgence and protection of the Supreme Lord Krishna. In other words the Lord is provided with the best thing in the universe by His pure devotees. Lord Krishna was provided with all kinds of comforts and facilities available within the universe by the members of the Yadu dynasty and in return such servitors of the Lord were protected and fearless. #$p#A forgetful conditioned soul is fearful. But a liberated soul is never fearful as much as a small child is completely dependant on the mercy of his father is never fearful of anyone. Fearfulness is a sort of illusion for the living being when he is in slumber by forgetting his eternal relation with the Lord. As the living being is never to die by his constitution as stated in the Bhagwat Geeta (B.G. 2/20) then what is there as the cause of fearfulness? A person in hallucination is fearful of a tiger in dream but another man who is awake by his side sees no tiger there. The tiger is a myth for both of them namely the person dreaming and the person awake because actually there is no tiger: but the man forgetful of his awaken life is fearful, whereas the man who has not forgotten his position is not at all fearful of the so called tiger. As such the members of Yadu dynasty were fully awake in their service plan of the Lord and therefore they were awoken living beings and there was no tiger for them to be afraid of at any time. Even there was a real tiger the Lord was there to protect them by dint of His arms stretcher. #/div# #/div# please wait#div class="mw-parser-output"##p class="mw-empty-elt"# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TEXT_38"#TEXT 38#/span##/h4# #div class="verse"# #dl##dd#yad bāhu-daṇḍābhyudayānujīvino#/dd# #dd#yadu-pravīrā hy akutobhayā muhuḥ#/dd# #dd#adhikramanty aṅghribhir āhṛtāṁ balāt#/dd# #dd#sabhāṁ sudharmāṁ sura-sattamocitām#/dd##/dl# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="SYNONYMS"#SYNONYMS#/span##/h4# #div class="synonyms"# #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=yat&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#yat#/i# — whose; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=bāhu&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#bāhu-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=daṇḍa&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#daṇḍa#/i# — arms; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=abhyudaya&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#abhyudaya#/i# — influenced by; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=anujīvinaḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#anujīvinaḥ#/i# — always living; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=yadu&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#yadu#/i# — the members of the Yadu dynasty; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=pravīrāḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#pravīrāḥ#/i# — great heroes; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=hi&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#hi #a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=akutobhayāḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#akutobhayāḥ#/i# — fearless in every respect; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=muhuḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#muhuḥ#/i# — constantly; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=adhikramanti&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#adhikramanti#/i# — traversing; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=aṅghribhiḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#aṅghribhiḥ#/i# — by foot; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=āhṛtām&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#āhṛtām#/i# — brought about; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=balāt&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#balāt#/i# — by force; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sabhām&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sabhām#/i# — assembly house; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sudharmām&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sudharmām#/i# — Sudharmā; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sura&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sura-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sat&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sat-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=tama&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#tama#/i# — the best among the demigods; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=ucitām&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#ucitām#/i# — deserving. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TRANSLATION"#TRANSLATION#/span##/h4# #div class="translation"# The great heroes of the Yadu dynasty, being protected by the arms of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, always remain fearless in every respect.
